i see you use the dog food with three flavors. just curious - which do they eat first (i guess the soft stuff), and which are the dregs (i guess the dark brown)?

call me silly, but i bought puppy size for the birds because they seem to be having trouble swallowing the big stuff, and I see them soak it in the water to soften it if its to big.I don't know about the flavor I'll taste it and report back.

That feeder must be made of either Lead or Gold - now we know what Elbert does with all his money.!!!

What stops it from tipping over on the birds, especially when a Woodpecker hangs off the side like that.

I don't know that one , I'll google it :-)
